The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) provides guidelines on appropriate screen time for different age groups. For children younger than 18 months, screen time should be limited to video chatting. For children aged 18 to 24 months, parents should choose high-quality programming and watch it with their children to help them understand what they are seeing. For children aged 2 to 5 years, screen time should be limited to one hour per day of high-quality programs. For children aged 6 and older, parents should establish consistent limits to ensure screen time does not interfere with sleep, physical activity, and other healthy behaviors.
